The core Zakon o igrama na sreću was amended by NN 72/2025, a durable primary legislative instrument, with implementing bylaws (Pravilnici) re-issued to align with the amendment. Licence categories remain unchanged in structure: land-based casino, online gambling, land-based betting shop, and the state lottery monopoly held by Hrvatska Lutrija. The amendment does not restructure these categories but tightens conditions attached to holding a licence within them, including a compliance requirement under Article 46(2) of the consolidated text. Because the delegated implementing instruments carry MIXED durability relative to the DURABLE enabling Act, operators should distinguish between the stable statutory floor and the more revisable operational detail sitting in bylaws beneath it.
